Ukraine calls to abandon “sanctions that do not work” against Iran and move to more “destructive” measures

Dec. 24 (EUROPA PRESS) –

The adviser to the Ukrainian Presidency, Mikhailo Podoliak, has called on the international community to apply more “destructive” measures against Iran and to put aside the sanctions because, he says, “they do not work.”

“Iran, which plans to increase the supply of missiles and drones to Russia, shamelessly humiliates the institution of international sanctions,” Podoliak said in a post on his official Twitter profile.

According to the adviser to the Ukrainian president, Volodimir Zelensky, the international community must put aside the sanctions “that do not work”, as well as the “non-operative resolutions of the United Nations” and take action.

Podoliak has proposed adopting more aggressive measures aimed at destroying factories and arresting suppliers, a statement that is in line with kyiv’s constant accusations against Tehran and the alleged supply of weapons to Moscow in the framework of the war.

In fact, these accusations earned Zelensky a reprimand this week from the Iranian Foreign Ministry, which, in response to the Ukrainian president’s statements in the United States, warned that his patience has a limit.

From Tehran they rejected for the umpteenth time the theory that they are supplying drones to Russia and valued their position of not opting for either side in a war that is ten months old this Saturday.
